Anybody played this yet? Is it worth the 60 bucks or w/e?

    *A GREAT RUMBLING OF BASS AND MUCH SHAKING*
No Electronic Arts bball game has ever been worth $60, so I'm not sure why it would be now. I've given up all hope on having a decent NCAA bball video game since they monopolized the market.

I rented it.  It is not very good.  Playable, but not very good.  They don't even have K-STATE's new unis.  They also have Clemente rated a 68 or something like that. . .with Colon rated +70. . .

Rundown of the ratings would be awesome...

I can give them to you, I'm watching a movie right now, but in a bit I'll put them up.

Maybe our FBall coach in NCAA Football '10 is Patterson?

They should hire people to do this, rather than paying people who don't watch sports and just work 15 hours a day in an office, then go home and watch star trek repeats.

Skate 2 comes out in January (20th).  I can't wait. 


Cheesy Mustache QB might make an appearance.

New warning: Don't get in a fight with someone who doesn't even need to bother to buy ink.

Good call. I was a fan of 2K's college basketball franchise. Bought EA 09 this year out of desperation for a college game. Pretty frustratingly crappy. Fun in spots, but lots of dumb, seemingly easily fixable errors.
